It is "ber" month yet I feel like talking about love. Yes L O V E. This is my favorite subject. As always.

When I was younger, I always thought that love could be something so special, something magical. I always thought that it will lead you to infinite happiness. No heartaches, no fights, no dull moments. A relationship bound with honest love, pure love and real love.

But as I grew up, the way I think about love has changed. It is not the same with how I read it my romance books nor understand on a love story. Love is about heartache. It is about sacrifices. It is about being strong for the relationship, for yourself and for your lover. Love can still be special - only when your partner feels the same way. Love can still be magical - let alone with the surprises of gestures and effort. And lastly, love can still lead you to infinite happiness - only when it is reciprocal.

As I was playing Tetris on Facebook, the compound where I am living began to panicked when one of my tito went outside when he heard a loud bump. And as expected, it was one of the vehicles parked outside our place that was hit by a tricycle.

We called for some help from Barangay Tanod and called some police as well. The driver of the tricycle was drunk. Knowing my family, my tito, the owner of the car - we will not let this man not to pay of what he needs to pay. He got too many violations that he was asked to choose.

When life gets tough, when changes occur.. who will be your strength? what if your strength is also your weakness? and suddenly, its gone. Who would you turn to?

oh yes, you have your friends, you've got plenty of people, surrounds you as for you to ease the pain. You have them. They'll call you, give you advises you already know but cannot applied to yourself. Easy girl, you know the problem. Deep inside you know what it is.

And yes, that is the toughest of all, this is the hardest. Everybody has gone through it. But why can't you? You keep on fighting against yourself. Do you think that will do fair? Everyone should be the main competitor of their selves. Did you ever know why? For them to become and do good. For them to become more positive in life. People fight against themselves to become better, to increase the faith and belief that they have for their souls, for their lives. But why can't you? Why does it seem that every time you fight against yourself, you lose? You always get yourself down.

Listen to me girl, you know who you are, you know the problem, the consequences and the risk.All you need to do is trust yourself. Listen to your heart. Don't be afraid to get hurt, you are beautiful little lady. Be someone that is hard to lose. Be someone worth losing for.

A lot of Filipinos had a hard time on how to stand up against the heavy rain fall last August 7, 2012. It caused floods all over the National Capital Region and as well with the provinces near them. But along with this disastrous event, Filipinos seem not to care with what happened and laugh over Habagat to ease their losses. Huge number of houses, properties had been taken away from them.

But despite of what happened, it is still more fun in the Philippines for the world can see how "Bayanihan" had build up for almost a week. A lot of casualties have been reported and along with that, a lot of help are being offered. That's the Filipinos. We may look happy and smiling our aces with the floods, having fun with the dirty rivers, but hey, we are the strongest ones to face this tragedy.

There were lives taken, people got hurt but in the spirit of being a Filipino, many rescuers (with families waiting for them) had given their time to save other's lives. We may hate some part of our country, people may hate us like Marin Tan, but nobody can ever do what we can do.

So for every Filipino, keep smiling. God is with us. We made it with Ondoy, we'll sure make it with Hanging Habagat. All we have to do is unite and pray together.

And be proud for being a Filipino. Those jail-men were really amazing. :)

Second day of July and still I am listing these 22 things of mine. Asking yourself, "why 22 instead of 10 or 15 or something?", the answer is, because your writer is about to turn 22 years old this 11th of July.

I have done my bucket list on foods, now it's time for the songs. The songs I will be listing here are the songs I don't usually listen, but when I hear them plays on the radio, I will keep on playing them on YouTube, but not to download them. Them after a long while, the cycle will happen again.

First and foremost, I want to say that these song are not listed in any particular order. Let start this now, let's see if we have the same taste in music.

I can't consider myself as a total food lover. I won't even try new foods that doesn't suit my taste. I don't know why, maybe because I was born to be this delicate in choosing the foods I'll eat.

No onions on pizza, no mayonnaise on fries, extremely no veggies, to tomatoes, etchetera, etchetera. However, things eventually changed. I have begun to try new foods, tried to eat some veggies and ate on restaurants I haven't tried before. But for some reasons, the same old taste lingers on my tongue and keeps myself crave for them more.
